Schedule 14 of the Crime and Policing Act 2026 – which enables the Secretary of State to make regulations relating to the reporting and registration of intimate image material - commenced on 29 June 2026, following Royal Assent on 29 April 2026.

The Government scoping exercise on the creation of a register of non-consensual intimate images is underway, and secondary legislation will follow in due course.
